Contains dissimilarity matrices across mountain regions in British Columbia and BC for each of the 13 avalanche problems. The extended Dice coefficient was used on problem prevalences in order to compute the dissimilarities. This computation was carried out for each elevation band (alpine, treeline, below treeline) separately.

Ldry
Loose dry avalanche
Lwet
Loose wet & persistent slab
NoProbs
No avalanche problems
Pers

Storm
Storm slab
StormDeepP
Storm & deep persistent slab
StormPers
Storm & persistent slab
StormWind
Storm & wind slab
StormWindPers
Storm, wind, & persistent slab
Wind
Wind slab
